Edu submitted by adeesh on June 16, 2017, 1:35pm This book really explains the true meaning behind science and it's concept

Not What I Expected submitted by Natmare on July 13, 2018, 4:53pm I start this review with the preface that throughout my years in school I have learned to love biology and tolerate chemistry. I borrowed this book because I wanted to read some account of someone’s love for chemistry and how that love can help and hinder the romantic form of chemistry. I loved the wit of the main character and how her life is told. The end of this a book reminds me of the end of Leave Me by Gayle Forman in that many questions about the main character are left unanswered and remain that way. I like that it leaves me to answer those questions for myself and draw my own conclusions about her life. I also enjoyed the tidbits of information interspersed throughout the book given my the main character to others in her life. They led me to explore more about the facts and learn more about the world. I recommend this book to anyone who enjoys questioning the world around them.

A Sharp, Quirky Saga submitted by sVfGI7Glt2pz7GZgVB90 on August 23, 2020, 9:44am Wang paints a striking disparity between science and emotion in this page-turner. This is the anecdote of a 20-something leading woman who battles self-doubt, imposter syndrome, and uncertainty about what she really wants. Caught between her parents' high expectations and her boyfriend's total support, the nameless narrator is forced to choose that can't be reduced to an equation.
